Pontifical Biblical Institute

Oriental Studies

As of 1932, the Biblicum added a Faculty of Oriental Studies (also known as the “Oriental Faculty”) that offers Licentiate and Doctorate degrees in ancient oriental languages.

The Licentiate Curriculum in the Faculty of Oriental Studies provides a comprehensive but flexible program to prepare the student for

specialized research in the principal languages and cultures of Oriental studies.
